Guests on set Daily this Tuesday, May 23, Helena Noguerra and Mareva Galanter spoke about their debut as a model and Miss France. Then aged 15 and 18, the two women saw several men making advances to them.
This Tuesday, May 23, Yann Barthès received Helena Noguerra and Mareva Galanter on the set of Daily. Friends for several years, the two women are currently promoting Paris-Tahiti, an album in which the former Miss France performs songs in homage to her native island and written by Lio’s half-sister. Now aged 44 and 54 respectively, the ex-beauty queen and the actress had similar trajectories at the start of their careers. If Helena Noguerra left Belgium at the age of 15 to evolve as a model in New York, Mareva Galanter, she left Polynesia to join Paris at the age of 18. Having become famous thanks to their beauty, the two teenagers unfortunately had to face the inappropriate proposals of the men with whom they worked.
Ces “funny weekends” to which Helena Noguerra was invited when she was 15 years old
When Yann Barthès asked his guests how they had “escaped the toxic dudes” at the start of their career, Helena Noguerra confided that she took refuge in literature. “I had literature. I liked to read and I stayed with my books at home. Literature saved me because when I was invited to strange weekends, gentlemen, agency bosses who were sometimes very handsome, said: ‘Come this weekend if you’re bored in my villa’. And I photographed the villa, I saw gentlemen, even if they were 30 years old, I saw them old, with cigars, girls moving. Well I thought to myself: ‘Kunder [Milan Kundera, écrivain tchèque du début du XXe siècle, ndlr] in my room it’s going to be great’“, she confided. And to specify: “I didn’t feel in danger, mind you. But it was instinct.”

“When it came to me, I said no”confides Mareva Galanter
For her part, Mareva Galanter confided to having lived the same type of experiences. “I discovered a world that was not mine, that was not my culture or my environment. So actually, the slightly weird stuff, we feel them, we say to ourselves: ‘But why is he inviting me? Why is he suggesting that I go away for the weekend?’. Honestly, I haven’t come across this kind of situation very often, but when it came to me, I said no. I’m a pretty wild person too so I think that saved me.”, said the one who now shares her life with Arthur. And to conclude: “My culture at the end of the world meant that I was different and that I didn’t have the ambition to go at all costs into things that didn’t look like me and that were perhaps going to ruin me, so I stayed. true to who I was.”
